And Sachin in that kind of form when he scored the 200 against SA and even during the world cup against SA would have obliterated everything.......besides Sehwag was more than enough for your team......

If they are so great and BD bowling so crap(which it is) then why didn't they score 15 sixes against Bangladesh and made 180 from 90 balls? They couldnt even hit 10 sixes in one match even against Kenya or Zimbabwe.. give credit where its due to Watson

I am sure some Indian ppl will be crying now about How tendulkar and sehwag this and that. We all know tendulkar is better than watson but watson is better than sehwag, Cry as much as u want and also about how u won world cup and all the crap nobody cares. Its like how AUstralia used to keep on bragging after winning 3 in a row but Indian started just after winning one after like 30 years. I'm out of this thread and screw this BD team

What gives? Full credit to Watson. He was brilliant and brutal. Are you questioning Steyns and Morkels ability? Thirdly there was no requirement for hitting 15 sixes and besides we were not chasing, but setting a target, so why take unnecessary risks? Yes, we couldn't hit 10 sixes against Kenya and Zim.......or for that matter anybody. But we still won the cup - right?

Secondly the context was the difficulty factor. Getting a 200 against the Saffers counts higher.

I hope shakib says something more exciting though and he should mention the fact he is still the no 1 allrounder and everything was a weakness today but raquibul was a weakness among weaknesses and razzak is the akmal of bangladesh only he doesn't wear gloves etc etc. I hope he just starts speaking abol-tabol-should be entertaining

Yes we know you are 70% of Viewers, 85% of Revenues, World Cup winners presently, the No 1 Test Team, and we are really crappy team right now (We do not deserve Test Status), but that doesn't give you any right to be arrogant.
Remember you were also at a similar stage in 79 WC (Lost all matches), SL was also in such state (And both teams were in hunt for their second World Cup) hence in few years time with some better governance we can be there. You should take all this with humility and not arrogance

Whats the point of following and loosing our sleep over bunch of losers, who don't give damn about winning or the fans. I am tired of this endless slow and painful torture. We the fans at least want to see them fight back and not give up before the start of the game. Impossible is nothing! somebody needs to get it through their head. Impossible is nothing! nothing!

farewell Banglacricket and good bye

Best post so far. Applies to me too. Why are you guys wasting time as well...
